The Model 3 is $36k in China, $38k in the USA. They've missed the mark a bit, so a $25k vehicle might be welcome, especially in developing economies.

- Dig1t 3y agoWell, adjusting for the inflation we’ve seen over the past few years, the price is actually not very far from 30k in pre-pandemic times.
- dublinben 3y agoThey've already been beaten to the punch by BYD and their multiple cars under $20k. They even have a small hatchback for less than $10k! https://electrek.co/2024/03/06/byd-launches-cheaper-seagull-ev-9700-price/ https://electrek.co/2024/03/06/byd-launches-cheaper-seagull-...
- seanmcdirmid 3y agoSure, but Tesla could always compete against BYD here if they wanted to. There might not be much profit in it, however, and Tesla has a bit better reputation at the high end whereas BYD might still be struggling to sell its higher priced vehicles (for now).
